Advise me - iPad mini - 10th Feb 2015 9:34pm
Mrs wants an ipad mini - because "her friends have them".
I never argue
I am not familiar with Apple stuff
I know that there could be discussion about whether Samsung / Nexus ie better than Apple but she wants Apple
ipad Mini 2 seems the way to go. The Mini 1 is a lot cheaper but poorer screen etc, and mini 3 had add-ons that seem to be insignificant.
The issue is about benefits/ need for/ issues with having the cellular enabled version
From my own use of a Hudl 1 (Ok but very poor wifi sensitivity) I know most use would be via various wifi hotspots. However, we go camping/ visit other countries sometimes and often there is no wifi available. Hence my query about cellular.
I intend to buy outright so I presume (????) that will mean the device would not be locked to any specific Mobile company ie I could throw in any SIM card to use the cellular function.
Is that correct?
My mobile phone will NOT do tethering - well, not on my cheap package with 3.
What to folk think? Is cellular enabled worthwhile (it costs) or just try harder to find a wifi link?
